I Went Viral for Being Awful on a Second-Chance Romance Variety Show

The variety show Second Chance at Love features four once-famous couples who are now on such bad terms they never want to see each other again. The pairs were nominated and voted on by netizens. (Breakup edition)

The show became a hit before it even aired. Fans wanted to see their favorite couples share sweet moments, drama-seekers wanted gossip, and netizens loved watching the chaos. They chose the most shameless pairings possible, eager to see the awkward, explosive confrontations.

Among all the big names, only Tang Qianyu was completely obscure. She was nominated as the rumored girlfriend of a top-tier star, thanks to his anti-fans.

Everyone was waiting to laugh at Tang Qianyu.

But no one expected Tang Qianyu to have a truth-telling buff: anyone she angered would start telling the truth without meaning to.

During a game, the Best Actress took the Best Supporting Actress by the hand, ready to put on an act of sisterly affection and take a jab at Tang Qianyu while she was at it. "Xiao Tang is still young. She'd actually throw away her future for a man, unlike us..."

Tang Qianyu: "We're old? We have no future?"

The Best Actress glared at her, and the truth poured out before she could stop it. "Unlike us, who fought over a man until we couldn't stand the sight of each other. If this show weren't paying so much, I wouldn't have come anywhere near it. What kind of celebrity is she? How could she possibly be my sister?"

Her words left everyone speechless.

The Best Supporting Actress's face darkened on the spot.

Even the Best Actress herself was stunned. How could she have told the truth on the show?

The two women argued fiercely, exposing each other's secrets.

Tang Qianyu shook her head and looked at the camera and the production crew. "You people really are shameless."

Netizens: "...?"

Wait, we're only shameless online. You're shameless to people's faces!

During the late-night talk segment, the top-tier star stared into her eyes and asked insincerely, "What do you think of me?"

Tang Qianyu pulled out her phone to play a game and answered frankly, "I don't really want to look at you. You're ugly and have no decent work. You can't even sing in tune, yet you call yourself a singer. Even the Great Wall isn't as thick-skinned as you."

The top-tier star's face twisted. Unable to control himself, he walked up to the camera. "It doesn't matter what she says, as long as the editors mute this part, slow down our intense eye contact, and add some heartwarming background music. Then I can pay for some publicity again! First I'll buy rumors that we're a couple, then I'll say she was throwing herself at me to get publicity!"

His manager was dumbfounded. I did tell you that, but I didn't tell you to announce it on a livestream!

Netizens: ?!

The viewers had wanted to see their favorite couples get back together, and have a laugh at Tang Qianyu's expense while they were at it.

But unexpectedly, they ended up watching their favorite couples make fools of themselves alongside Tang Qianyu.

[Before the show aired, I thought Tang Qianyu was the only one who wasn't normal. After it aired, I realized she's the only normal one.]

[Honestly, aside from her sharp tongue, does Tang Qianyu have any flaws? And the thing is, she's not wrong.]

[@Tang Qianyu, could you go insult my rival? It's urgent.]

[Let's crowdfund a talk show for Sister Tang, where she can put every celebrity couple in the entertainment industry on trial!]

[Does anyone still remember that this show is called Second Chance at Love?]

[Tang Qianyu be like: Get back together? I'll smash that mirror to smithereens!]

Theme: Think before you speak.
